About this map

Soo Line tracks cut across the northern edge of this landscape, connecting the small grain-handling centers of Bisbee and Agate. The area is defined by the township boundaries of New City and Zion, showing a rural prairie environment organized by a dense grid of section lines and field fences. Local history is anchored by family and community landmarks, including the centrally located Teubner Cem and the southern Halling Cem.

Genealogists will find interest in the scattered rural institutions like the Townhall near the southern boundary and Zion Cem in the southeast corner. The presence of multiple Gravel Pits and a small Landing Strip suggests a modest localized economy. This survey documents the specific placement of farmstead structures and section corners in a period before significant rural consolidation altered the northern North Dakota landscape.
